Wednesday morning one-liners

The Bills signed DL Ikponmwosa Igbinosun to the practice squad and released DE Adewale Ojomo from the practice squad. (And yes, I had to double-check the spelling of those names.)

Dolphins coach Joe Philbin knows Miami fans aren’t happy with what they’re seeing on the field or hearing off the field, but he’s trying to look on the bright side: “I’m happy fans are passionate. We have a loyal fan base. We all want the same thing. We want to have a team that is consistently competing for championships and represents the organization the right way on and off the field.”

Jaguars LB Geno Hayes says the whole team stayed upbeat despite losing their first eight games: “Here at 0-8, guys were still working hard to get better. Nobody has given up. There was no bad body language. And the coach believed in us. There were no worries at all.”

Titans return man Devon Wylie explains his nickname, Wiggles: “It’s another adjective for being shifty, so they called me Wiggles a lot in college,” he said. “I’ve had a whole bunch of nicknames, but that one stuck. Being wiggly is what I have been described as.”

Said Raiders coach Dennis Allen of getting a punt blocked against the Giants, “Yeah, we just had a miscommunication in protection. We had a guy, we started on him, then they kind of did a little twist and we came off of that guy, so there was just a little bit of miscommunication as to who had who. We’d been pretty good at that up until that point during the season, so now we have to work to get that fixed.”
